“My mom's mercedes GLC300 came with pirelli scorpion Verde tires and they have 1/32" measured left on the wear bars after less than 30k miles. My mother drives like a grandma too. They're fine for turns and pep on Florida roads but absurdly short wear time.”

Higher is better. The Relative Score follows your weights below; category scores do not change.
Wet grip starts at “Important”. Treadwear starts at “Neutral” here: road tests measured it for at most one of the two tires, so it rests on owner reviews. Move the sliders and the scores update instantly.
Only one of the two tires has a score here, so this weight changes nothing in the head-to-head.

Community sentiment for the Pirelli Scorpion Verde is mixed, with users frequently praising its low road noise, dry handling, and comfortable everyday ride. However, many drivers report disappointing tread longevity, premature cracking or chunking, and significantly degraded performance in winter conditions and heavy rain as the tires wear.
“2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee came w/Pirelli Scorpion Verde 265/50R20 and didn't even get 20k miles out of them. Worst tires I've ever driven on, driving on Interstate during rain and tires hydroplaning so much it felt like my lug nuts were falling off. Replaced w/Goodyear Wrangler Steadfast and way better tire thus far.”
“I have had both the Scorpion Verde (all season plus II) and the Scorpion Zero's I find that the Pirelli's last longer than the ConitSilent's that our X came with at delivery. Have 171k miles on the X, so we've been through a few sets now.”
“Are Pirelli Scorpion Verde really that ‘not awesome’? Took our fair weather Georgia ‘23 B6 up to Michigan this past week. Great stuff, except for some slipping and sliding. I’ve read in this forum that some folks are not fans of the stock Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires. But it wasn’t enough for me to consider alternatives prior to our trip, like replacing the 32k mile tires or buying dedicated winter tires. We won’t do such trips often, once a year max. Now I’ve go my eye on the future as the Pirellis wear out. When temps were below <20F (-6C) there was some slipping and sliding when I wasn’t expecting it. My sister’s rented Atlas did not seem to suffer the same behavior. (I assume stock all season.) Any help calibrating my expectations would be welcomed. PS: we did have chains in the trunk if conditions got really bad.”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
